Katha was only 25 when she chose her daughter over her husband. Vedant wanted a son. When Vedika was born, he withdrew-never holding her, never celebrating her, never seeing her as more than a burden. So Katha did what generations of women were told not to- she divorced him. She left. She walked away from silence, from a loveless marriage, and from a house that never saw her daughter. She returned home to Kashi, hoping to rebuild something soft, safe, and loving for Vedika. What she didn't expect... was Rudraksh Thakur. Her first love. Her ex boyfriend. The boy who broke her. Now a man who won't stop fighting to earn her back. Where Vedant failed, Rudraksh rises. As a father to Vedika. As a lover to Katha. Because no matter what time took from him-she was always his. But after everything.. he did to her in the past... Will Katha be able to give him a second chance? Will Katha let herself be loved again-by the man who once shattered her? **** "Rudraksh... I have a daughter..." Katha whispered against his lips. His hand slid to her bare waist beneath the saree, pulling her closer, his lips brushing against her neck. Slowly, he began to kiss her there. She gasped, but he didn't stop. "No, Katha..." he murmured, voice low and certain. "Vedika is our daughter."

One night in Vegas was a mistake. Ten months later, it's the only thing keeping them alive. Dr. Victoria "Tori" Paisley is a woman of logic and medicine, but she made one very illogical move: she got blackout drunk in Vegas and woke up married to a stranger. That stranger is Donte Reed, a cold-hearted billionaire with a reputation as an arrogant "dick" and a brother who has already leaked their "happily ever after" to the press to save the family's corporate image. Tori doesn't want Donte's money-she just needs to save her seven-year-old sister, Esme, who is fighting a rare childhood lung tumor. When Donte offers to pay for Esme's life-saving surgery in exchange for Tori staying married to him for eighteen months, she has no choice but to sign her life away to a man she can't stand. But as the "sham" marriage continues, the walls between them begin to crumble. Behind Donte's icy exterior is a man who would give up a kidney to save the woman he's accidentally fallen in love with. Just as Tori realizes she's carrying his child and is ready to admit her own feelings, a shadow from Donte's past strikes with lethal intent. After a near-fatal "accident" leaves Tori with a fractured skull and a missing memory, Donte is forced to play a dangerous game. To lure out the psycho ex-lovers who want Tori dead, he must do the one thing that might destroy her forever: make her believe he's back to his old, cheating ways. In a war of love, lies, and obsession, can Donte protect his family without losing the only woman who truly owns his heart?
